in 251 Falcon or 256 Falcon. The 251 Falcon is sort of a 25-20 improved with a straight case, sharp shoulder and short neck. Of the several barrels we have chambered in this caliber we are getting well under 1" inch groups with it. The 256 Falcon is a 30-30 case necked down to 25 caliber and it has been a one hole caliber for the several years it has been out. .
The 251 Falcon is set up for lightweight bullets while the 256 Falcon works pretty much with any 25 caliber bullet. Also who loaded the ammo for the barrel?
